I'm finding it hard to decide if it's a good idea to go back to school already because of the attack on the ministry. Dangerous things keep happening, and we may just be safer at home with our families, rather than at the school where one student has already died. My father says that this is reminiscent of some of the things that happened the last time Nyx appeared. We must be vigilant

So think you want to ride with me on the train, or are you gonna be busy with your slytherin friends?

	But, Lia, its dangerous. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	While I'm so glad you two think it's funny to mock. I'm not afraid. I'm wary of the situation and we should be. There's something to be said about fear being a big moving factor and negative, but so is blind bravery. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Not mocking. Fact. Life isn't easy. Not living because of fear, running? Moronic. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's not running it's looking at all the options and deciding if it's the best course of action. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Inspiring more fear. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Then we should be afraid. A lack of fear does not mean that we are safe. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Not respecting that fear? Just as moronic. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If something is to happen, probably doesn't matter where you are. Ministry isn't safe, then nowhere is. Cannot live by constantly hiding. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"The general who advances without coveting fame and retreats without fearing disgrace, whose only thought is to protect his country and do good service for his sovereign, is the jewel of the kingdom." Art of War.

Knowing when to retreat, when to take account of your opponent; knowing when to admit defeat in a battle, to recollect yourself in order to win in a war, is essential.

Standing up just to prove your bravery, is just as foolish as constantly hiding. Holding back, and thinking, can be valuable in a fight. Don't be so fast to call an action moronic when it can, at times, make strategic sense.

	Inciting fear means inciting actions caused by fear. Slytherin. Don't care about bravery. Just rather not get hurt because of the excessive fears of others. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Thank you! I honestly thought what I had to say made at least some sense. I wasn't attempting to incite anything, but I get people jumping down my throat for it (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
